POSTAL RECEIPTS
INCREASE IN YEAR
Postoffice Has Shown Steady Increase for Last Six Years—
Current Volume Largest.
More business was transacted by
the local postoffice last year than
any year in the history of the office.
It is classified as a third class post-
office, but its amount of business
places it very near the margin of second class rating.
For the past six years, according to
Postmaster Roy Clark, the local office has been making consistent annual increases. In 1926 the total
stamp sales amounted to $7288,
which it two per cent higher than
it was last year. The postal business
for the month of December just past
showed an increase of more than $55
over the corresponding month in
1925. The increase of two per cent
is not as large as last year, which
was four per cent higher than 1924.
The fact that the local postoffice
business is increasing steadily is an
indication of the fact that Palouse is
making a normal growth each year.
